I expect so much better from Tony .
When will MA Or self defense experts get over using a frontal knee to an opponent mid section with their arms down ready to defend and take the knee er to the ground.
Every thing else was typically good as expected from Tony.

Second, while a knee strike can potentially leave you open to countering if used by itself, in THIS context the strike was used against an opponent that was already off balance and disoriented from preceding attacks. As such, a single, fast knee strike is nearly impossible to counter effectively: even if they do get an arm up to defend, it will still result in a punishing blow to the head/face.

That’s not the point, here. These type of drills are intended to allow the average person to defend themselves against an untrained criminal attacker. In this capacity, they excel.

Student alert!

Trigger Guard Devices are seen by some who carry in the appendix position as a minimalist great carry option. The Vanguard II is the most evolved design of this type and offers some very specific features including: a belt loop that holds the gun in a constant position and a fin which protrudes from the

Brain Sabol discusses the importance of defensive firearms training for a 360 degree world, even on a typical square range. Brian offers some ideas for how you can train more realistically even when your live-fire options don’t include 360 degrees.

Old-school thinking held that if a tourniquet were used on an extremity wound, the injured person would lose that limb. That has been shown to be incorrect, and tourniquets are now in the first-aid kits of medics on battlefields and streets worldwide.
